Join C, D, and B, E intersecting in G. G will be the center of gravity of the plate. … CENTER OF GRAVITY. 49 K Since the line CD bisects all lines drawn parallel to thebase, and, consequently, divides the triangle symmetrically,the center of gravity of the triangle will be in this line. Forthe same reason, it will be in the line BE, and will thereforebe at their intersection G. Join…
